Mass layoffs have impacted four prominent music journalism outlets, leading to industry-wide condemnation. The publications affected include Alternative Press, BrooklynVegan, Revolver, and Goldmine. These cuts were enacted by Veeps, a live-streaming platform co-founded by Joel and Benji Madden. The move has drawn significant backlash, particularly given the role these outlets played in the early careers of bands like Good Charlotte. Additionally, former employees have come forward with allegations of workplace harassment.
